    Whew, just bought alot of stuff!

    I am leaving the crank pulley the stock 6.87" that Vortech supplies. This combo should produce JUST a hair below 50k impellar speed, which is where the s-trim starts to lose efficiency. Thats assuming a 6300 redline.

    Meth injection vs. Intercooler

    Well I have a Sportsman block with girdle, so I am not so worried about the block. I get a lil bit of blow-by though, so I think it'll be the oil rings that go first. :owned: I also have 9.5:1 compression so I am trying to figure out how to run 12-14psi and methanol. Should be good for...

    Meth injection vs. Intercooler

    Wi Stang thanks for the write-up, thats the kind of dyno #'s and daily driver info I was looking for. Did you try to run any additional boost with the meth to make those, or is that power gain from more timing only? Also what size pulleys do you have, and how much boost did you make those...

    Meth injection vs. Intercooler

    From Snow's website their kit for the mustang works off boost, not maf voltage like some other kits. Which style is better?

    Meth injection vs. Intercooler

    I am putting my S-Trim on finally and am wondering if before I get it tuned I should have some sort of intake cooling device installed. I know the meth is alot cheaper and easier to install, but how long does a tank last? Is an intercooler worth $1000 more?

    Cobra guys (or GT guys w/Cobra brakes)

    If I go the spare wheel route I'm gonna get these: http://www.mandhtires.com/store.php?crn=74&rn=368&action=show_detail They are 26" tall, and actually cheaper than those goodyear.

    Cobra guys (or GT guys w/Cobra brakes)

    Yeah but the spare is only 4" wide, so it cant fit the typical sizes sold in regular street tires. And yeah I'm sure the 9.5" fronts and 275's are hurting my 1/4 times a bit. I need all the weight transfer I can get with the stiff springs on the car.

    Cobra guys (or GT guys w/Cobra brakes)

    What do you use for front skinnys? I dont really want to run a huge spacer or put new studs on. here's what I've come up with so far: 1. Pair of tri-bars with 205/50/17's. This would still drop prob 10-15lbs off my current front setup and be ALOT narrower. 2. Buy another spare & run...

    Turbo project DONE ,car is running and its nasty

    what kinda power #'s are you expecting? I had a 93 PGT, thing was a pile of ****zle. I sold it to get my 94 GT. That looks like an awesome build tho. Props.

    What Gears????

    I was VERY happy with the 3.73's I had in my bolt-on 94 GT. 5th gear was usable on the expressway, but with dr's out back 1st was very nice. I would get the jump on LS1's all the time, until around 60mph. 4.10's would def accelerate better, but you'll be shifting alot more, and I dont think...

    SVO Side Exhaust skirts still being made/sold...

    wow nice find, I am needing to replace mine since they are kinda cracked, and these save me some worry and a couple bucks

    I think my old car is faster than my new car, and i am pretty sad about it.

    And SHO's are only really decent from a roll, they trap in the 95mph range stock, but dont a ton of power out of the hole.

    What Pizza Cutters would go with my car?

    Oh, for sure. Myself I am just trying to weigh the cost vs. the gain. I am trying to balance how much to spend for the front vs. the rears. Plus, $460 gets you some pretty nice HP mods that you could use all the time, versus front tires that you only use at the track.

    What Pizza Cutters would go with my car?

    The best fitting skinny 17" tire is the 26x4.5 made by M&H, and its $140/piece. I had looked into using 2 Cobra spares and getting 2 tires, but in the end it would have cost more than just getting 2 draglite's and running Kuhmo 165's. Here's a couple options I am looking at: 15x3.5"...
